Sorry, had to..... :P

"I'm going to bury him! I'm going to crucify him!"

... I love Clubber Lang.

Anyway ...

Pittsburgh 24, Arizona 13

MVP: Troy Polamalu (3 INTs, including one for a TD)
 
Working on a Dream, Glory Days, The Rising, Born to Run.

At least 12 minutes that will be worth watching.
 
I predict that I'll watch Bruins-Habs on teh interweb and will spend the remainder of the day researching goings-on in the Texas Legislature. One of the best things about being on the news side now is that I no longer feel compelled to watch the Super Bowl if I don't want to do so.

Later tonight, though, I'll see if I can find Springsteen's performance on YouTube. :)
 
In my head:

Pittsburgh 30, Arizona 17
The Cardinals get off to a hot start courtesy of Kurt Warner to Larry Fitzgerald and lead 17-3 early in the second quarter. However, the Steelers get on track, the defense starts getting to Warner and the Steelers rattle off 27 unanswered points. Troy Polamalu wins the Super Bowl MVP award with 11 tackles, a sack, an interception and incredible intimidation of Arizona's receivers.

In my heart:

Arizona 24, Pittsburgh 20
The Cardinals set the tone with their first possession, surprisingly turning to Edgerrin James, who runs eight times for 40 yards, culminating in a four-yard scoring pass from Warner to Fitzgerald. Pittsburgh answers back, but the Cardinals have gotten into Pittsburgh's head with their surprising run prowess. Warner then does the rest, finishing the day with three touchdowns, 357 passing yards and a Super Bowl MVP trophy in Arizona's shocking victory.
 
Cardinals 35, Steelers 14.

It's easy to have a top ranked defense when you play three teams, as the Steelers do, without an offense.

Cardinals are on a roll. I wonder if Al Michaels will ask "Do You Believe In Miracles?" afte this game. It's certainly appropriate.

As for Bruce, as long as he plays nothing from that ghastly "Tom Joad" album, I'll be fine.

I think it goes the other way: Steelers 24, Cardinals 20. It'll be a close one, but Roethlisberger rules at the end.
Steelers win, but don't cover.

Ticats 27, Stampeders 12.

Oh, wait, wrong game.

Pittsburgh 21, Cards 10
 
Cardinals 34, Steelers 21

All this talk of Larry Fitzgerald being the next coming of Tebow is going to make Anquan Boldin play like a madman. He's back in his home state and not that far from where he played his college ball. He'll have a huge game and likely an MVP nod. I saw some local footage of Steelers fans that have taken over a bar called "Tank's Taproom" in Tampa and they interviewed one Steelers fan who was wearing a white hat and a terrible towel under the hat, covering his neck and hair. He looked like he was ready to cry because he was in Tampa for the game. I think he'll be crying later too, but not tears of joy.
 
Cardinals 31, Steelers 14

Arizona, thanks to an early turnover and a couple of TD drives, takes a two-TD lead into the second quarter. The Steelers start throwing more, but struggle to move the ball. The Cards, though, give Warner enough time to find his trio of stud receivers and move the ball as well as anybody has against Pittsburgh.

MVP: Warner

I pray you are right.... 31-17 Steelers.

Except they should have been exposed as frauds during the other 10 games (Patriots? Cowboys? Giants?) if that were true, right?

I'm going with Steelers 26-13 ... that way my square's a winner, like my team.
 
Steelers 30, Cardinals 17. Warner turns it over four times against Pittsburgh's attacking defense. Game won't be close as Cards tack on a couple meaningless scores in fourth quarter. James Harrison is MVP.

Steelers 42, Cardinals 3

MVP: James Harrison

The defense will unleash hell on Jesus boy.

Now that's a rediculous statement. That defense isn't that good.
 
Steelers 17, Cardinals 6

In the running for most boring Super Bowl ever.
